Dear Editor,
This final term of the school year provides a perfect opportunity for many to improve the level of preparation of students entering secondary schools in September. Unfortunately, I already see many Grade Six students playing excessively. In one school visited, I got the distinct impression that everyone felt that this term had little remaining value for those particular students since they had already written the National Grade Six Assessment. This is sad considering the low levels of preparation common to the vast majority of our students entering our secondary institutions.
